One of his most remarkable qualities is the sensitivity with which his lens treats his subjects. His videos follow a documentary style aesthetically, while his narratives are poetic. The format of the video essay allows him to throw into question the nuances of social and cultural contexts. His work deals with the polemics of power, political violence, emotional and physical vulnerability of the ‘other’ and pain. (From the exhibition catalog of the Gallery Latitude28, New Delhi, India)
